RESPECT THE HAMMY‼️ . The hamstring and ACL share the responsibility of preventing excessive anterior translation of the tibia (S/O to the Soleus it also helps) . If our ACL is torn or surgically repaired we probably want that hamstring to be as strong as possible to help control that tibial translation . If we take a hamstring tendon to replace the ACL the whole hamstring will be affected . On top of that, if we take the semi-tendinosus tendon (medial hamstring) it could impact our ability to internally rotate the tibia, or it could impact our tibia’s resting position (it may rest more externally rotated than we want) . This can create problems with knee extension . At least that’s been my experience . Also consider getting a hamstring graft doesn’t guarantee you won’t deal with a patellar tendon issue anyway . Getting the hamstring and quadriceps as strong as possible need to be a staple in any ACL rehab program . . . . . . . . . . . #aclrehab #aclrehabilitation #aclrehabexercises #aclrehablife #aclrehabdiary #aclgang #aclrecovery #aclsurgery #aclsurgeryrecovery #aclsurgerysucks #aclsurgeryrehab #kneesurgery #kneesurgeryrecovery #kneesurgerysucks #kneepains
